Hi all, Some of us have been discussing on IRC whether to apply again to the Google Summer of Code 2019, as The Qt Project. The deadline for organizations to send applications is February 6th. The current idea is that, unless there are strong objections against applying, we will try to submit an application on […]

First things first, Happy new year dear Qt users! I’m sorry, I’m really late 🙁 Some time ago we decided to avoid repeating the same tedious code to write our own “Simple” Http Servers. So we started writing a Qt HTTP server with several essential features. The word simple is quoted because something planned to […]

Recently I had to write some scripts to automatize some of my daily tasks. So I had to think about which scripting language to use. You’re probably not surprised when I say I went for C++. After trying several hacky approaches, I decided to try out Cling – a Clang-based C++ interpreter created by CERN. Cling allows […]

Hello! I was recently wondering about the status of the coroutines in C++ and I found several implementations. I decided to choose this one for my experiment. It’s simple and easy to use and works in Linux and Windows. My goal was to try to find a way to have code running asynchronously without waiting […]

Following the previous blog posts related to the Qt WebGL plug-in development updates, we have some features to show. As a quick recap: Qt WebGL QPA plug-in is a new platform plug-in which will allow your Qt Quick applications to be streamed and ran directly into the browser using streaming of OpenGL calls and rendered […]

Some time ago I published a couple of blog posts talking about Qt WebGL Streaming plugin. The time has come, and the plugin is finally merged into the Qt repository. In the meantime, I worked on stabilization, performance and reducing the calls sent over the network. It also changed a bit in the way the […]

One of my preferred developer tools is a web called Compiler Explorer. The tool itself is excellent and useful when trying to optimize your code. The author of the tool describes it in the Github repository as: Compiler Explorer is an interactive compiler. The left-hand pane shows editable C/C++/Rust/Go/D/Haskell code. The right, the assembly output of […]

A week ago I received my Raspberry Pi Zero W to play a bit with some IoT device. The specs of this small device computer are the following: 1GHz, single-core CPU 512MB RAM Mini HDMI and USB On-The-Go ports Micro USB power HAT-compatible 40-pin header Composite video and reset headers CSI camera connector But the […]

WebGL Streaming is optimized for Qt Quick and allows you to run remote Qt Quick applications in a browser. I’m working on a platform plugin to run remote applications in your browser, using OpenGL command streaming. When the remote application runs using this new platform plugin, the application will create a lightweight web server. When […]
